adrift...

another small collage on canvas made as i continue to consider the emigration of my grand and great grandparents from norway.

what must it have been like to step of the shore and onto the ship that would carry them away?

what must it have been like to be able to have such faith in their God and in the future?

what must it have been like to be adrift for days before finally stepping onto that distant shore called America?

adrift. 17" x 8". collage of recycled oil paintings on canvas,

machine stitching, canvas remnant.
